Benidorm Attractions - Terra Mitica

Terra Mitica (Mystical Land) - Opened in 2000 the Terra Mitica is a huge theme park on the outskirts of the bustling resort of Benidorm. One of the most popular tourist attractions in Benidorm the Terra Mitica receives a huge number of visitors during the busy summer months.

Very cleverly designed the Terra Mitica has something for people of all ages and for young children there are small replicas of the adult rides.

There are 5 main themes to the park and these are based on the ancient civilizations of the Mediterranean Sea - Greece, Egypt (Land of the Pharaohs), Rome, Iberia and the Mediterranean Islands. There are some wild and amazing rides and new rides are added each year, there are also plenty of great shows, with over 80 different shows each day.

The Terra Mitica is open from March to November and is open most days from 10am to 10pm, current single daily tickets are 26.50 euros for juniors and seniors, 35.00 euros for adults (2010 prices).

Getting to Terra Mitica is relatively easy, it has good road access from the AP-7 motorway and the N-332 coast road. It has its own stop on the F.G.V railway line which links Alicante with Denia, and there are coach trips organised from Benidorm and many other surrounding towns and resorts. The nearest airport is Alicante (El Altet) which is about 55 kilometres away.
